2024-09-24	Da*****	Great app, with just a few suggestions. The app doesn't save the preference of clear or cloud cover upon startup; thus, would be great if it did, or just to have clear set as default. Also, the ability to send a notification of a index of 3 is good, but would even be better if it did it throughout the day in increments of 2 to keep you really updated; or a notification in status bar that updates every hour would be perfect !!🙂

2024-08-20	Si*****	Er det muligt at lave en widget så man kan se nuværende UV tal, så man ikke behøver at finde appen for at åbne den? Jeg savner også Dark mode

2024-02-24	St*****	Doesen't work with Android 14 on Pixel 8. Had to find a more useful app. Kræftens Bekæmpelse could do better.

2022-07-11	Mo*****	Rigtig god app, der kan vise, hvor meget solindstråling, der er lige nu og her, hvor jeg er. Der er dog en lille ting: jeg synes ikke, at det forventede antal skyer og derfor mindre mængde solindstråling passer med det, jeg ser, når jeg kigger op på himlen. DMI's radar viser heller ikke nogen skydannelse, der, hvor jeg er, så jeg synes, at denne del af jeres app er lidt upræcis. Ellers er den guld værd 👌

2021-09-20	Th*****	The app looks like it had a lot of thought put into the design. No adds (or at least I haven't noticed any yet). Good UX design overall. The onbord process is well-done. No need for an account. I haven't found a way to manually set the Fitzpatrick skin type yet, but that's not that big of a deal. The distinction between cloud cover and full sun is nice. The information is useful and the personalized recommendations are nice. Thank you!

2021-06-16	Jo*****	Well! - for the first while, it dimmed the light on the whole phone whenever started. Now I cannot prevent it from running in the background. Right now at 7 in the morning it will tell me that it's 16 minutes until noon time, so it doesn't even know what time it is. It indicates my Danish city correctly, so it knows where I am, but still it warns of a UV Indeks of 9, which is not possible here.
